Brief Description of Tech Tool: This website allows students in all grade levels to practice a variety of skills. Each grade level is broken into different big ideas and those big ideas are broken down into all the parts that make up that concpet. For example, when working with angles there is find the missing angle, reading a protractor, applying to polygons, etc. This is a great way for students to be able to practice math concepts on their own at home or at school. If students struggle with the concept, the tool will provide step-by-step explanation to help students understand.

 

Technical & Cost considerations: Although this is a great tool, it does cost money. My school paid for math portion. However, you can catch free 30-day trials. This website works well on general computers as well as the SmartBoard.
